William Shakespeare - Homage To Shakespeare

monkavantgarde

Review by Mayank Rajput

Homage To Shakespeare, the album by William Shakespeare, is a remarkable tribute to the legendary playwright. The album features various artists who have interpreted Shakespeare's works in their unique style, making it a diverse and captivating collection of songs.

The album opens with a stirring rendition of "Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day" by Rufus Wainwright, which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The tracks that follow are equally impressive, with each artist bringing their own interpretation to the table.

Highlights of the album include "My Mistress' Eyes Are Nothing Like the Sun" by Sting, "Sonnet 18" by David Gilmour, and "When I Do Count the Clock That Tells the Time" by Bryan Ferry. Each of these songs captures the essence of Shakespeare's work while adding a modern twist to it.

The album concludes with "Full Fathom Five" by Robert Plant, which is a beautiful and haunting rendition of one of Shakespeare's most famous songs.
